That is way good to know.

Wow. Talk about pampered!!

I didn't mean to kill the thread really!! I think my math actually errs on the side of making it look like an easier task than it really is. Fortunately for all of us we can get Qcharts and put up indicators ad nauseaum and put up different timeframes and a global cursor and just scan...

You ain't wrong!! Even my P4 2.4/512/slower FSB machine works just flawlessly. I went through the computer nightmares from the 1970's on as a high tech worker, they have finally gotten to where they are useful and we are not working for them, the computers are working for us at last!! The...

I used qlink for quite awhile a few years ago and it was problemattical at times. I do recall reinstalling Excel at least once to fix something. It is really easy to uninstall Excel and reinstall from the CD.

I tell them I'm working this side of the street and they better move along. :)

What does this moron know? A team of teenagers and a bomb maker can plan and pull off this kind of shit.

That is really good advice. If you are analytical like myself and really like to take time to learn a subject you can do it without the pressure to produce. You can keep the income from the job and the job gets a lot easier as you learn about trading and start to realize some second income. Much...

Blowing up is more a function of leverage than strategy. We are discussing strategies here really.

You listed 19 indicators. If you use combinations of 2 there are 342 combinations, if you use combinations of 3 there are 5800+, 4 yields 93000, etc. Then if you think about the combinations of settings for each indicator, say 20 on the average, just the combination of 2 will have 136,800...

I heard from one guy on this same question who optimized every couple of months on the last 3 months's data. That resulted in minor tweaks to his system and ongoing profitability. I don't know how he did in the last couple of years however. If he was smart he probably changed over to a shorting...

Republicans are big proponents of deregulation and it never seems to work out very well, Airlines, California Energy, etc. In the case of the California energy problems what should have been exposed is the actual shortage of production of electricity by the state and dependence on buying...

You might as well ask "how do I cope with a discouraging asshole". He almost certainly does not know a thing about trading but he is very opinionated about it and not afraid to throw cold water on your plans. Don't let him know anything more about anything you are doing. Max

There wouldn't be any posts!!

I wrote some words to live by for my trading business. One was "to have the computer work for me and not the other way around". That is leading me to automate. Whatever work I can turn over to the computer I am. First I'm automating my exits because they are the most mechanical part of my...

Working on automation via TS2000/Dynaorder/IB, just for exiting early morning trades while I'm commuting.

I was a Buckeye till age 12. I moved because my folks moved and for once they gave me the forwarding address! I loved it there as a kid, good education, no noise out in the countryside where we were, never been back though. We grew so much food that I was a hunter gatherer as a kid!! I...

You are going to take over for Jack someday

Cool, gbye quote.com

I read Jacks stock trading threads. Definitely very CANSLIM oriented. Heavy on the selection of issues to watch, light on the tech analysis, not ineffective probably, just not complex at all. I would say that, without any actual backtesting because I never quite was sure how he entered and...
